Comforting chicken enchiladas filled with tender shredded chicken, zesty enchilada sauce, and melted cheese wrapped in warm tortillas.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or Monterey Jack)
  • 1 cup enchilada sauce
  • 8 corn tortillas
  • 1/2 cup diced onions
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to a warm 350°F (175°C) to set the stage for melty goodness.
  2. In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onions and sauté them until they become translucent and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
  3. Combine the shredded chicken with half of the enchilada sauce and half of the cheese. Season generously with salt and pepper, mixing until well combined.
  4. Warm the tortillas in the microwave for about 30 seconds to make rolling easier!
  5. Spoon a generous portion of the chicken mixture onto each tortilla. Roll them up tightly and place them seam side down in a baking dish.
  6. Pour the remaining enchilada sauce over the rolled tortillas and sprinkle the remaining cheese on top.
  7. Slide the baking dish into the oven and let them bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is beautifully melted and bubbly.
  8. Once done, remove from the oven and let them cool slightly. Serve hot, topped with a dollop of sour cream!
